DISCUSSION:
• The Locating department had a total of 103 locate tickets in December; two of them being
emergency tickets, two cancellations, five meets, 80 normal tickets, one boundary survey
and 13 updated tickets. Locate numbers are down from last month. When Richard is not
locating he is working on map book updates and the ArcView maps.
• In December, the Security Systems Department had a total of 99 phone contacts, four
systems quoted, eight system sales made, five installs completed,43 service calls and five
personal visits. Totals for the year were: 1,157 phone contacts, 94 systems quoted, 81
sales made, 94 installs completed, 407 service calls and 95 personal visits.
• Electric Technicians continue with the meter reading,power bill, substation checks,
hanging red-tags, meter read-outs and dealing with meter and off-peak issues. They
continue to change out the three phase meters to radio read meters and help with the
monthly engine runs. They are also re-programming three-phase meters in the field for
commercial and industrial loads. Jeff Murray has been doing some infrared testing on
substation components and found a hotspot on one of the switches at the Waco substation;
this will be corrected soon.
• The power plant staff did the monthly engine run on December 16th, everything ran
smoothly. Fratalone Excavating is currently dredging the cooling pond for the generators.
• On December 9-11, I attended the MMUA Technical& Operations Conference in St.
Cloud, MN with Troy Adams and Mark Fuchs. It was a very good conference with many
new topics of discussion.
• Staff continues to collect data with the GPS for our ArcView maps as time permits.
